Streetfighter V2

Discussion in 'Streetfighter' started by Snips, Sep 27, 2021.

  1. Just had a call to say mine's being built, and should be at dealer around the 10th March - excited!

    (I was originally told end-March / early April, so this is sooner than expected)

  2. Excellent! Not long now, spring is coming!

    In other news I am purchasing a Tony James Designs PPF kit. I have spoke to Tony a couple of times and I have to say he seems like brilliant guy who seems extremely passionate about his kits. I know you were keen on PFF so I thought I would share.
     
  3. Thanks for that, the call was actually to confirm I still want PPF, which I do indeed.

  6. Do they do many bikes? I was talking to the guys at Snell when I was there Saturday, and they said they have someone that does all their PPF for them, so I'm planning on getting mine done before I collect it.
     
  7. Not sure how many they have done but it's booked in for Tuesday so I will let you know how it goes.

    Snells did mention they had a PPF guy. It's certainly easier just to get it done while it is there.
     
  8. Paul and Matt. The Panigale V4 Speciale on their web site is mine. Andy
     
  9. Should have said, I was pointed in their direction by the Forum’s resident Vehicle detailer, Rob and they have been great to work with. Subsequently had them do some polishing on my car wheels. Andy

  10. Small world! It looked fantastic so they seemed like a good choice.
     
  11. How much are they charging?
     
  12. That's the bad bit. £300. Install only. I supply the kit.
     
  13. Ouch! That seems high
     
  14. Did you read the write up in the portfolio link ? I know it was the first time they had worked with a Panigale V4 but my memory is telling me it took 3 days. Andy
     
  15. 3 days?! I’ll contact the guys that Snell use regularly, as I’m sure they could do it quicker, and cheaper. I can’t quite justify knocking on for £1k to do 2 bikes; it would make more sense to just replace the odd panel when/ if they get chipped.
     
  16. I think Snell's was 250 all in. The guy is something to do with chipsaway as his van was outside at the time.
     
  17. That’s kind of what I was expecting. I’ll give him a call once the bikes are on their way.

  18. I'm having rear pillion pegs removed to do the full monoposto conversion, so asked my dealer if spacers were required, or whether they came with the seat cowl as someone suggested.

    I've just been asked (online) to approve a couple of spacers for total of £6.58 so I assume they don't come with cowl.

    Part # 71614961AA - spacer

    Just thought I'd share that.

  19. Good to know. I’ll get my dealer to order a couple.
     
  20. Got my bike today. Collected in a van due to weather. Dealer had already removed the pillion pegs and installed the spacers.

    Installed Evotech Rad Guards. 25 mins.

    Tried to install the Evotech bar ends and it didn't fit! In fact it got stuck half way in, started crying, rang Evotech.

    They experienced the same issue on their 2nd trial bike. The inside of the left bar is not smooth. Poor manufacturing apparently. I had to smash it out with a screwdriver and damaged it.

    My advice is don't install the bar ends until they have found a solution, I don't blame Evotech, they were really good on the phone.
